November 2025

November is a month that invites reflection. As the days grow cooler and our routines are established, we are reminded of the importance of slowing down, noticing what we are grateful for, and extending kindness to those around us. In the Lone Jack C6 School District, we are proud of the way our students, staff, and families demonstrate these values in both small, everyday interactions and in meaningful acts of generosity.

LJC6 acknowledges our primary responsibility is academic success for every student. We are committed to providing high-quality instruction, strong curriculum, and learning environments where students are challenged and supported. But we also recognize a truth we see every day, students cannot fully learn, grow, or thrive if their basic needs are not met. A hungry child, a worried child, or a child facing uncertainty at home cannot fully engage in learning. This is why we work intentionally to care for the whole child.

This season provides an important opportunity for our community to come together in support of one another. Each year, Lone Jack families and community partners provide Thanksgiving meal boxes to families who may benefit from assistance. Our annual Angel Tree program will be up and running soon to ensure that children in our district experience the joy of the holiday season. As well, for families who could use support with school meals, donations to student lunch accounts are also welcomed and make an immediate difference.

This is where Lone Jack shines.

If you are able, we invite you to join us in these efforts. Donations of non-perishable food items, gift cards, wrapped gifts, monetary contributions, or contributions to lunch accounts all directly support students and families right here in our community. To participate or learn more, check out our building social media channels or contact our front offices, we will be glad to get you to the appropriate representative.

As we move through this season of Thanksgiving, may we continue to show our students what it means to live with kindness, empathy, and gratitude. Thank you for being the heart of this community, for supporting one another, and for helping us support our students each day.
